Sydney Biggs is sixteen and somewhat of a rebel. After she and her best friend, Natalia, sneak out to a party one night, her mother ships her off to her father for the summer so that he can deal with her. Her father then tells Sydney that he is sending her off to a wilderness camp for a month.

The only problem is that Sydney is pregnant, and she needs to decide whether she wants an abortion or not within a very short period of time.

She plans to not think about her pregnancy at all during the month that she is away, but then Natalia shows up on the trip with her and is a constant reminder of Sydney's situation. In the end, what will Sydney choose to do?

This was a fantastic read. As soon as I heard about EVERY LITTLE THING IN THE WORLD I wanted to get it right away, and when I got my hands on a copy it definitely did not disappoint. I felt so bad for Sydney during the entire book. She was constantly trying to figure out what the right thing to do was, and it didn't help that her best friend was always pushing her opinions on her.

All of the characters in the story were great and I liked the ending. This is a wonderful story about a huge decision that a young girl has to make.
